I don't see my name? does hat mean I am not matched yet?

Life is not perfect, Do you know ANY perfect people? I don't! If you make a mistake it is what you do with that inormation that makes the difference. You can do this - keep on keeping on. It is my little moto, the more you do the more you will want to do, make small changes and make them count and then move on to the…

Try 2 things - 1 half push ups or box push ups - google them as seeing is better than I can write and try lieing down to start then slap you hands down and push up and slowly come back down -I built to 10 in a few days like this - it is what cross fit advocates

Carol Start Weight: 305 Current Weight: 209 Goal Weight: 180 (maybe 160 see how we go) Height: 5ft 4in Age: 36 Clothes Size: 16 top 18 bottom (UK) Favourite Exercise: TRX/ circuit training/ P90X2 I train 5/6 times a week and am trying to eat a higher protein diet / Busty also - 36G cup!

What a great idea!!! I am carol I live in the uk I am 5 ft 4 in and now 209lb, I started my Weightloss journey 2 years ago at 305 so I am damned close to 100lb off! Before Xmas I was 1 lb off grrr! Me mind it is coming soon. I want to get to 180lb as my target and then reassess from there! Hope I find my twin! I am a…

My daughter came home from school and told me her and her little friend had been discussing the fattest Mammy in her class - turns out it was me! If it was a grown up i would have passed it off as a *****y comment but as it was just innocent -no maice - no hurt intended - just fact it really sank in. I have lost 7stone in…

you look like the first woman's daughter - amazing stunning and good on you lady !

Right up off the sofa, off the PC and TRX time :) gonna try to do 150 burpees as a challenge tonight so better get a bloody shift on!

I have left the group public for now so people can add themselves but will close it private once we are set up - ok??? http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/1797-biggest-loser-challenge-group-closed-group

I agree with Jane - not a place for people who want to starve themselves - I personally follow a high protein diet and will be continuing with that - I have lost of ideas for upping the exercise!

Ok group set up - I have put closed group as Jane will be closing this soon as she will be overwhelmed otherwise!!!!!! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/1797-biggest-loser-challenge-group-closed-group

Thanks Shanna, if we get stuck we are running your way ok!Think Porffor is going to set up a group - this got big quick so bare with :)

Yey! I am helping! Wil do my best but I am not the most spread sheet literate so we'll see! Just thought I would share for those who are down that i was 305lb (21st8lb) at the start of my journey 2 years go, I am 211lb today and 2 weeks ago I was 7 stone lighter at 206lb (which I damned wel will be again and quick!) It…

Jane are you good at the spread sheet formula's etc? If you set it up and email it to me I will put it on google docs easy peesy!

Jane, if you use Goole docs everyone can log their weights themselves - less work for you?

I wanna play too :) I am defs watching tonight I am gutted to say 211 after being 206 before xmas but facts is fact so here we go!

I chose 2 things to focus on- Finding the silver lining - I am a terrible one to be negative and To trust my instincts - I rely on what oter think too much and need to start trusting myself :)

I am 211 and 5'4" - I was 206 before xmas and have lost 98lb on my total journey - if swapping diaries means checking each others out I can do that

I use shock absorber and they are the only thing good enough for my 36 G size, I had them from the start of my journey at 46 FF, I noticed my first bra just wasn't suporting and causing stretch marks from jumping, never had that problem once i switched to shock absorber

Beach bosy have just released Les Mills Body Pump - they have body pump classes over here in the UK which were his plan, looks good for weights particularly - check out their web page - they do ship to the UK

Try ankle supports they work for me! Also try a great stretch - cross your feet - so they are next to each other but crossed if you get me and then fold forward and hold for as long and as deep as you can - then swap and do the other leg - it stretches a tendon that runs down the calf all the way to your little toe -…

I did that - used half the protein to start and rice mik. I am up to full measure now but still use rice milk and lost 5 lb in the first 10 days :)

I have lost 99lb in 2 years and I have some loose skin but I am convinced I would have more without yoga and strength training - such as I do TRX - whole body resistance work? Give it a go

2 more lb till my 100lbs off :) thought I would say i posted pics of my progress on a thread and i have posted them in my profile if you want to see :)

Huge thanks to all who have commented, hope you all do well in your loss. My daughter loves having a healthy mammy, she is proud of me everyday :) thanks for taking the time to comment :)

WOW!!!! that puts it in perspective!

oh so cute thanks :)

thanks i feel 10 years younger
